Chas. Ktaf sley. CLU A LL aboard for Chicaso! A A jubilant grotip of Otna- na ana Lincoln women girls, one might say, thinking of their frolicsome mood pulled out from Union station Wednesday night at t o'clock on their way to Chicago to attend conventions of the Amer ican Woman Suffrage association and the League of Women Voters, opening there February 12. Warm greetings little short of embraces met each addition to the party. "How-do-you-do," said one wom an to Mrs. Charles T. Neal. "I know your husband quite well." "I'm glad to see yotu," replied Mrs. Neal. "You know it is rather a queer thing; so many people con fuse me with my husband, when really we are two distinct per sons." i No one evidenced more anticipa tion than Mrs. David Crowell. who ranks as a "pioneer" in the suffrage movement. "But you don't look old enough for a pioneer," said one. "I was just a slip of a girl when I entertained Lucy Stone and Henry Blackwell at Fremont," she ex plained. Mrs. Crowell was a member of the program committee which ar ranged for the appearance in Ne braska of Susan B. Anthony and Eases V Colds At once!

Mr. Blackstone, engi neer frtr the city of Hastings ad dressed the club. Clubs .and schools all over the state are co-operating in a variety of ways. Members of the Papillion Women's club and a large number of invited friends were entertained two weeks ago in Bell's hall when Mrs. F.'B. Bell was hostess and the teachers of the Papillion school furnished the program. Burton Tvvitchell. of Omaha, community song leader, had charge of the en tertainment. The Papillion Times, speaking of Mr. Twitchell's part on the program, says: "After a short talk in which he ex plained the aim of the community work, how it originated to afford the soldiers amusement and recreation in the concentration and army camps and bow its use had been expanded to afford clean, healthful amuse ment for others, he then 'got busy with the community sing idea and soon had everyone "singiig their heads off whether all followed the tune or not. This broke the ice and.many who had not opened their mouths to sing for years were hit ting high C. After this a number of the community games were in troduced and young and old were skating and sliding about the flooi in utter oblivion of their age, race or previous-condition of reserve and aloofness. People who had not in dulged in games since the clays of their youth were as keen and as in terested as the younger set, and en tered into the games with a zest that was gratifying in the extreme. All formality and stiff social ideals, were laid aside for the time and en joyed the program without stint. i Hofmann, Famous Pianist Modest' Genius "If the" reader were by chance to be introduced fc Josef Hofmau'i, the great pianist, and if he did not know Mr. Hofmann's profession, it would not be odd if the pianist mentioned no word about music," said Mrs. Lucien Stephens. "World famous as he is,, the master of all pianists is likewise a master of many other things, and, in any in tellectual 'or scientific circle he is a brilliant figure withal a modest person. Music has been the one great thing of his life, but the other sides, of his makeup are no less striking. In appearance the pian lstic "giant" is slightly under med ium height, and of a solid, com pactly built frame. He gives the immediate impression of great vi tality and alertness. His forehead is bvoad and high, the mouth firm and with a trace of sadness at the corners. The eyes are deep set and his hair is tinged with gray. "On the platform, Mr. Hofmann is fhe quietest of performers; without apparent effort his colossal strength crashes forth thunders of harmony He sits almost without moving be fore the instrument as he performs those wonders that have for years amazed all pianists as well as his big general public of admirers. He stefps upon the stage with a brisk, business like tread, very much as a busy man might enter his office, and he seats himself in the same manner. One knows instinctively that here is a master, unassuming and almost oblivious to the audience. When the waves of applause go rolling to ward him, he acknowledges them with a simple, respectful inclination of the head. Throughout the en tire recital, which he frequently plays without leaving the piano, his attitude is that of one profoundly wrapped in his work, concerned only with the perfect performance of every shade and meaning of the music." Mr. Hofmann will be presented by the Tuesday Musical club at the Brandcis theater on Monday- eve ning, February 23, at 815 o'clock. Valentine Party. The entertainment committee of the Omaha club announces that there will be a Valentine dinner dance at the club Saturday evening for members and their friends.

Chairmen of the Omaha commit tees of the "Woman's Army of Ne braska" met .Wednesday afternoon at the Y. W. C. A. for a conference. Mrs. C. L. Hempel, local chairman, presided. Eleven churches in Oma ha are enlisted in the campaign, 25 clubs and 30 unclassified organiza tions, including lodges. Twenty of this number were represented at the Wednesday meeting. Mrs. Hempel reported that 200 pledges and 200 resolutions supporting the economy campaign have been given out. "We must reach the younger as well as the older women," said many speakers Wednesday after noon. An effort will be made to enlist the interest and co-operation of organizations chiefly made up of young women. Vamps as related to shoes came in for discussion. The short vamp seems to oe replacing the long vamp in the world of fashion. This fact, in the opinion of chair men, accounts for a reduction in the price of shoes during the past few weeks. It was stated that manu facturers are not sure whether the shprt vamp will "take" or not. It v.as evident at the Wednesday ses sion of economy chairmen, that at least the present supply of shoes in their possession will be worn out before any new styles 'arc pur chased. February 12, the date set by State Director Mrs. C..G. Ryan for filing reports, has been extended one week.

Narrow toe shoes are re- ' sponsible for most feet being distorted, like this Your feet should be like this. They tan be if you wear "Ground Grippers" If everybody wore Ground Gripper shoes corns, bunions, broken arches, -and other foot troubles would be as rare as they now are common. The ''Ground Gripper" is not a freak shoe. On the contrary, it is a scientific shoe. Its style is uninfluenced -by fad or fashion. It is designed to fit the uprmal human foot, while most shoes are designed to fit the "eye" and the "fancy." We'll be glad to explain to you, without ob ligation, the scientific features of "Ground Grippers" and to show you why they are the ideal shoes for men, women and children.
